The conservative commentator aired a first installment to millions of viewers on his prime-time show Monday, working to bend perceptions of the violent, grueling siege that played out for the world to see into a narrative favorable to Donald Trump.

He in the live feed is going on about how "Art is only good when it pursues truth", and that others "hate art and nature" if they don't agree with him, then talks about deceptive evil artists and how Music is a Liberating Force for his party. Following that he's going on about Jam Bands and people's fear of change. 

Dude's, uh... hmm.

I wonder why they made his live broadcast no longer public... 

Very sus Fox. 

shame. i wanted to watch that

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson has launched an impassioned new effort to explain away the deadly Capitol attack, linking the Republican Party ever more closely to pro-Trump conspiracy theories about the 2021 riot.

 Have you seen the clips of the Q'anon shaman being escorted through the building by police? He was, at times, alone and around 9 officers but was never arrested.  How do you compare that to how the media was portraying that mans behavior?  It seems like they lied to push a false agenda. The officers tried to unlock doors and were quite friendly and helpful to him.

Also, calling it a "deadly" attack is disingenuous. only 2 or 3 people actually died. are we forgetting the BLM riots? Compared to that, this is child's play: over $2 billion in damages, almost 2 dozen dead and over 1000 injuries. This is not including the countless business owners' lives that were ruined in the riots, many of which were black.

BTW i agree that Tucker Carlson is not very credible. Many of his rants are blatantly false. However, occasionally, he makes good points and his claim that the media twisted the narrative substantially about this riot is true.

I have not seen any of this, but I did watch Andrew Callaghan's take on it:

They charged the white house threatening names too popular to be construed as collateral damage. 

Simple as that.

Me too, by the time I found it it was already nearing it's finish. 

Fox News is notorious for edits, as we've seen with the John Stewart interviews on the network when comparing cut vs uncut footage. They must want to wash Tucker's live take clean of something from it.

A broken clock is still right twice a day.

 They all are.  Let's not kid ourselves and pretend that media outlets are truth-seekers. They are after sensationalistic stories and are willing to twist the narrative whenever necessary to garner better viewership and support.  Also, they are all the lackeys to their respective political parties, doing the dirty work of controlling popular public opinion and discourse.

 give me an hour to do laboratory work and what not and then Ill grab the clips for you. It's quite shocking. I'm not even in support of the riot, i thought it lacked purpose and effect, but the way they walked him around the building was wild.

Yeah, but in this case Fox News was the one hosting the live broadcast.

Nice, I'd love to see them for the room to compare how I take it to other people.
